Full Renovation of the Morinaga Candy Factory Pavilion at KidZania Tokyo
The renowned children’s educational and experience facility, KidZania Tokyo, located in Koto City, Tokyo, is set to unveil a fully renovated Morinaga Candy Factory Pavilion on July 14, 2026. Managed by KCJ GROUP, the pavilion has been a cherished component of the KidZania experience since its inception in 2006, allowing children to engage with the world of candy-making. With this major update, the pavilion will introduce new elements that include the fascinating history of candy product development.
What’s New?
The updated pavilion will not only refresh its exterior and interior designs but also revamp the variety of candy flavors and packaging. These changes aim to enhance the overall aesthetic and educational value of the experience. Young visitors will dive into the captivating realm of confectionery production, all while gaining insights into food safety practices.
In this engaging setting, children will take on the role of 'Candy Factory Staff' where they will learn about the history and important knowledge related to the candy they will create. Guided by expert staff, children will use both manual skills and machinery to produce swirling patterned candies. A vital part of their training includes performing checks for foreign substances, reinforcing the significance of food safety.
A Memorable Experience
Upon completion of their candy creation, each child will package their tasty treat in an original box featuring their own name. This tangible takeaway serves as a cherished memory of their time spent in the pavilion, promoting self-expression and pride in their accomplishments.
KCJ GROUP, the operator behind KidZania, aspires for this revamped pavilion to not only instill a sense of joy and creativity in young minds but also to foster a dedication to food safety and quality.
